The "Last Lecture"

I am flattered and embarassed by all the recent attention to my "Last Lecture." I am told that, including abridged versions, over six million people have viewed the lecture online. The lecture really was for my kids, but if others are finding value in it, that is wonderful. But rest assured; I'm hardly unique. Send your kids to Carnegie Mellon and the other professors here will teach them valuable life lessons long after I'm gone.

My lecture on "Time Management:" at the University of Virginia. Roughly an hour; the first eight minutes are introductions I don't deserve. Chinese translation here.

Diane Sawyer of ABC (and her incredible producer, Geoff Martz) did an hour special, which was way too flattering. Here it is:

Hyperion is publishing "The Last Lecture" as a book on April 8th. Click here for details. I am very psyched I got them to put "Carnegie Mellon" on the cover!
